The Queen travels through time and dominates the four realms
Chapter 53 The Troubles in the He Family
When the man heard what the shadow said, he seemed to have heard a voice from the outside world. He turned his head slowly and in disbelief, and the expression on his face changed from disdain to surprise. He no longer looked away, but looked at the shadow who said this with surprised curiosity in his eyes.
It was as if the shadow had spoken of what was in his mind, or what he was concerned about.
Shadow looked at the compass in his arms.
The pointer points to "true",
It seems that her guess was correct.
"The person you like in your heart has a relationship with the woman next to you, but because of some things the woman next to you did, you and the person you love can't be together, right?"
The man was shocked as if he was struck by lightning. He stared at the shadow motionlessly and nodded as if possessed by a ghost.
Because he felt that the person in front of him was definitely not simple, as if he could predict what had happened to him in every word, and they had never met before!
If he hadn't seen the two people opposite him dressed elegantly and classily, the man would have even thought that the disguised shadow in front of him was a sorcerer!
Shadow looked at the compass in his arms.
The pointer points to true.
It seems that the man has begun to cooperate.
It was more than just cooperation. If Ren Xiaoyao hadn't pressed the acupoints and mute points on this man, he would have rushed over and shook Shadow's shoulder and asked, "How did you know?"
When the woman next to him heard Shadow's words and saw the reaction of the man next to her, an expression of sadness and self-mockery appeared on her face.
Shadow saw the different reactions of the two people and had some guesses in her mind, and she intended to prove her guesses.
This time the shadow looked at the woman and asked:
"Lady, let me ask you this: the man next to you doesn't love you, but you knew he didn't love you, but you still had sex with him and even got pregnant with his child, right?"
As soon as Shadow said this, both the man and the woman reacted strongly.
The man was so excited as if he had found someone who could speak for him and tell the truth. He seemed to be accusing the woman next to him. With a look of disdain and disgust on his face, he glanced at the woman, then quickly turned his head back and never looked at her again, as if he didn't take her and the baby in her belly seriously at all, or even as a human being.
The woman's face was filled with misery. She no longer looked at the man, but just stared forward with lifeless, empty eyes.
Her face was covered in blood, and her mute and movable points were pressed. She looked sad and pitiful.
The pointer in Shadow's arms points to "truth".
It seems that my guess was correct.
Shadow looked at the man and continued to ask:
"Because the woman next to you destroyed the relationship between you and your sweetheart, so you have always been resentful of her, right?"
This time the man didn't hesitate at all. He nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
The compass needle in Shadow's arms indeed pointed to "truth".
The woman next to him no longer looked at him. She still had a miserable look on her face and empty eyes, as if she was mocking herself.
Shadow saw that the man had started to cooperate and also observed the changes in the woman, who seemed to have given up hope and would probably not cover up for the man anymore. He immediately felt that it was time to let them tell the truth themselves.
The shadow approached Ren Xiaoyao and whispered something in his ear.
With a slight wave of Ren Xiaoyao's fingers, the mute points of the man and woman on the ground were unblocked.
As Shadow expected, the two people did not shout or scream for help after their mute points were untied. Instead, they looked at Shadow as if they wanted to say something to her.
Shadow decided to listen to what the man had to say first, so he said to him:
"Just tell me what happened between you two. After you finish, I'll take a look. Maybe I can help you solve this problem."
After hearing Shadow decide to let the man speak first, the woman continued to kneel aside and remained silent.
The man started talking as if he had opened the floodgates:
"Master, you are right. My marriage with my sweetheart was ruined by this woman next to me!"
Shadow didn't look surprised, as if he had already guessed the answer, and motioned for him to continue.
The man continued:
"Your guess is correct. My sweetheart is definitely not the ugly woman next to me. My sweetheart is the daughter of the Minister of Rites in the capital, Luo Yuer.
The ugly woman next to me is Chunxi, Luo Yuer’s former personal maid. If it weren’t for her…!!”
Shadow glanced at the man, signaling him to stay on topic and continue talking.
After being reminded by the shadow, the man continued:
"Luo Yuer and I were in love, and it was time for us to get married. So I told my father, the owner of this place, He Dong.
My father was very happy after hearing this and he agreed with me very much. He thought I did a good job. He said that the Minister of Rites was an important official of the Yan State. If we could form a relationship with him, it would only be beneficial to us and would also consolidate our position in the Cao Gang.
Later, my father helped me even more. My He family gave Luo Yuer a lot of things, and the betrothal gift was almost as much as that for marrying a princess, and it was given to the Luo family’s mansion.
One day before the wedding, without informing her in advance, I planned to go to her house suddenly to give her a surprise.
Unexpectedly, when I was about to go to her room to see her, her other maid, Xia Ju, blocked me far away from the door with a strange look on her face. She said that her young lady was not feeling well and could not see me.
I became even more anxious when I heard this. We were about to get married. What happened to Luo Yuer? I hold Luo Yuer at the top of my heart. If anything happened to her, it would be a big deal.
So I pushed Xia Ju away regardless of her obstruction and walked to the door. I heard a strange sound coming from the room. I listened carefully and it was obviously the sound of a man and a woman having sex. I became anxious and wanted to kick the door open.
But Xia Ju blocked me at the door and tried her best to stop me from going in. I asked her why she stopped me from going in. Whose voice was that of the man inside?
Xia Ju hesitated and said loudly, "Miss, the young master of the He family is here to see you. Are you feeling better? Have you finished your work?"
I heard the previous sounds in the room suddenly disappear, and then there was the sound of something being kicked in panic. I didn't care anymore and wanted to push the door open to go in, but Luo Yuer actually came out at this time.
When she came out, she was accompanied by this ugly fellow, with dishevelled clothes, and a tied-up man beside her.
Luo Yuer asked them both to kneel down, and then said to me that this maid Chunxi was originally going to be my maid as a dowry when she married me.
She thought that they would be sisters from now on anyway, so she was not so harsh on her. Instead, she allowed her to come to her room at any time and take whatever she liked to eat.
But today she accidentally discovered that this maid actually dared to do such an indecent thing with the man next to her in her room. Luo Yuer was so angry that she taught them a lesson in there.
I saw that the ugly guy and the man looked the same as I had just heard. Luo Yuer's face was red, she must be very angry, so I ignored the ugly guy and told Luo Yuer that she didn't need a concubine when she got married, she could just marry here.
So we arranged the wedding according to the previous schedule. On the wedding day, I went to meet Luo Yuer happily, but after the wedding ceremony, I returned to the bridal chamber and wanted to lift the veil, but she refused to let me and didn't say anything. I thought Luo Yuer was shy, so I gave in to her and did not lift the veil that night, and we performed the husband and wife ceremony.
As a result, the next morning, I woke up and found that the person sleeping next to me was not Luo Yuer at all! Instead, it was the ugly woman who had an affair with the man in Luo Yuer's room before.
I yelled at her and asked her what was going on. She was hesitant and didn't say anything important, so I decided to go to Luo Yuer's house to find her and ask her clearly.
As a result, when I went to her place, I was stopped by the guards at the door of her house before I even reached the gate. Her housekeeper came out and said that Luo Yuer didn't want to see me, and said that I was heartless and ungrateful. She said that I did not marry her on the wedding day, but married her maid as my wife. She cut off all contact with me for the rest of her life and we no longer had any relationship.
I was so disheartened. When my father found out about this after I got home, he was furious and beat me up. He told me that I had given so much as a betrothal gift, but ended up marrying a maid, and he thought I was crazy. He also fined me five years of household expenses.
I was so depressed and had no place to vent my anger, so as soon as I got back I took it out on this ugly guy.
Later, I often drank alcohol, and I took out all my unhappiness and dissatisfaction on this ugly guy.
Not long after, this ugly woman told me that she was pregnant and asked me to stop beating her because she was afraid of hurting the baby. But when I heard that, I beat her to death on the spot, saying that this was the bastard child of her and the man she had an affair with, not my child, and she deserved to be beaten to death.
Who would have thought that this ugly girl would desperately protect the baby in her belly, saying that it was her and my child, and that she had only had that kind of relationship between a man and a woman with me.
From that time on, I told everyone not to talk to her or send her food, because I thought she had gone crazy.
Then this ugly thing would run out by herself to look for food, and when I saw her I would beat her up again.
Then, today I found her sneaking outside your window and looking inside. I thought this ugly girl was trying to steal food from the guest room again, so I beat her up, and then you found her.
I didn't plan to hide, but I found that her acupoints were pressed, and it was pressed from a distance. It seemed that the other party was very skilled in martial arts, so I decided to hide immediately and see what happened.
And now I was brought here by you guys."
After listening to the man's words, Shadow had completely understood what had happened.
But she didn't know that there were such stupid men in the world. If she didn't need some solid evidence to make the man realize that he was a fool, Shadow would have wanted to give him at least dozens of slaps on the spot and beat him to death first.
This man must have taken stupid drugs. He is so stupid that he doesn't even know what really happened.
He almost beat his own flesh and blood to death.
Thinking of this, Shadow could no longer be angry. He took a big step forward and kicked the man hard in the chest.
The man who was kicked by the shadow who had not expected it at all, screamed and fell to the ground, wailing in pain as if he couldn't believe it, and shouted:
"What are you doing, why are you like this?!"
Shadow's action even frightened the woman next to him. She wanted to go and see if the man was okay, but at the moment she was about to take action, she seemed to remember something and stopped.
The shadow looked down at the man, then sat back on the couch and said coldly:
"You know what kind of people I dislike the most?"
The man who was kicked by Shadow rolled on the ground in pain, not caring about his own pain, and wailed and yelled:
"You bandit! You kicked me for no reason... for no reason... I have no grudge against you, you——"
Before he could finish his words, Shadow kicked him again.
Because she really couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
